Local Dev 502bcf4ad1 Ariadne 0.1.1 + Theseus fetches it from silentmode.st (no more bundling)
Ariadne 0.1.1
- install.ps1 primary TLD source: HTTPS $Indexer/api/tlds -> advertised[]
  (electrum fetchTldList / legacy fetchBcnrTlds / ariadne.config.json /
   bootstrap kept as fallbacks in that order). Silent installs no longer
   stall when WSS is blocked.
- Persistent transcript at C:\ProgramData\Ariadne\install.log; separate
  install-error.log on any uncaught exception. Top-level trap logs the full
  stack, then exit 1 so Inno/NSIS silent-install callers see a real failure.
- .iss: SetupLogging=yes; DeinitializeSetup() copies Inno's log to
  C:\ProgramData\Ariadne\inno-setup.log on every exit path.
- Version bumped to 0.1.1. sha256=be1fa8841919b321841d90f8147abe1b1d7604fe7fff6c2e271dc47c4c24a2b6

Theseus decoupled from Ariadne
- Removed nsis/installer.nsh (custom Ariadne chain-install page).
- Removed extraResources entry for AriadneResolver-Setup-*.exe.
- Removed build.nsis.include from package.json.
- Settings > System-wide resolver panel now fetches the .exe from
  https://silentmode.st/releases-manifest.json, streams the download while
  hashing, refuses to spawn on SHA-256 mismatch. 30-min in-memory manifest
  cache so opening Settings doesn't spam the endpoint. Offline gracefully
  degrades to installedVersion-only / canUpdate:false.
- "bundledVersion" IPC field kept for renderer compatibility; it now
  carries "latest advertised by the site's manifest".

Deployed to silentmode.st:
- dl.silentmode.st/AriadneResolver-Setup-0.1.1.exe (25 MB)
- silentmode.st/releases-manifest.json (schema/2, updated 2026-09-08)
- silentmode.st/releases/ + silentmode.st/tools/ show 0.1.1
